…
Wang Xiurong smiled knowingly after hearing his ancestor's words.
The three foundation-building families of Han, Chen, and Huang, as a force with a longer heritage than the Wang family, can be said to have a "love-hate" perception of the Wang family as an 'outsider'.
Initially, it was because of Patriarch Qingyun that they had no choice but to accept the fact that the Wang family would establish their clan here and multiply.
Later, it was not easy to wait until Patriarch Qingyun passed away, and the Wang family had only one or two foundation-building monks in the family due to self-inflicted illness.
I thought the opportunity had come, but I didn't expect that Wang Lixing would appear again in the Wang family, and he would bring the Wang family to where it is now.
The current patriarchs of the three families of Han, Huang and Chen can be regarded as contemporaries of Wang Lixing. They often 'communicated' with Wang Lixing in the past, but they basically never took any advantage.
As for why we say 'love again', we have to mention the profits from the previous Lingshi Mine and the current Tainanfang City.
Without these two, I am afraid that the Han, Chen, and Huang families would not be in their current situation. You must know that at the beginning, they were just ensuring the inheritance of the foundation-building monks.
It's just that the world has changed. If there is a chance, I believe that neither the Wang family nor other companies would mind annexing each other.
"Okay, thank you for your hard work, but you still need to pay more attention during this period, especially the important things in the family, do you understand?"
Wang Lixing thought for a moment, then chuckled and gave instructions to Wang Xiurong.
"Xiu Rong understands!"
…
In the past few days, there have been rumors within the Wang family that the patriarch Wang Lixing will announce his abdication at the foundation ceremony two days later.
When the clan members first heard the news, they were all in an uproar, worried that the clan leader might be injured or even have a short life span.
It wasn't until I heard that the clan leader, Wang Lixing, wanted to go into seclusion to break through the golden elixir realm that the clamor among the clan members died down.
Not only that, some members of the Wang clan even fantasize that when Wang Lixing breaks through the Golden Elixir stage, the family will be in a situation of one Golden Elixir and five foundations, and so on.
Unfortunately, what they didn't know was that Wang Lixing didn't have the slightest certainty about this trip.
…
Because the grand ceremony was approaching, the Wang Clan Academy did not enroll the three children whose spiritual roots were detected this year into the Clan Academy the next day as usual, but planned to wait until after the grand ceremony to start.
Therefore, Wang Shi'an's younger sister Wang Shiyun has been at home these days, and his father Wang Mingzhe teaches Wang Shiyun how to introduce Qi into the body.
It's just that the qualifications of the Five Spiritual Roots are indeed well-deserved. After a few days, not to mention the introduction of Qi into the body, even the spiritual energy is not sensed.
In this regard, when Han Yuling asked Wang Shiyun about his cultivation, Wang Mingzhe could only vaguely say that he had just come into contact with cultivation and it was too early to talk about other things.
Regarding the problems Wang Shiyun had cultivated, Wang Shi'an had been going back and forth to the library in the past few days to look for qualification books. He finally had a preliminary understanding of the difficulty of cultivating the Five Spiritual Roots on paper.
From his understanding, if the Five Spiritual Roots want to build a foundation, if they just meditate and practice, there is basically no hope. It can only be possible by swallowing a large amount of heavenly materials and earthly treasures or miraculous elixirs.
There is also a successful case recorded in the classics.
That was more than two thousand years ago. For some special reasons, a powerful man specially selected a qualified monk with five spiritual roots to help him build the foundation.
Although the final price spent can almost cultivate a monk with three spiritual roots to break through the golden elixir, but no matter what, in the end, the monk with five spiritual roots also succeeded in building the foundation.
After learning about this, Wang Shian finally felt relieved. As long as he could succeed, there would always be solutions for other problems. He was convinced of this.
…
On Crab Island in the early morning, when the sun slowly flashes through the gaps in the sky, the whole earth also welcomes a new day.
And the Zhenyun Bell, which the Wang family would only ring when something major happened, actually rang continuously today for the first time.
when……
when……
when……
A series of bells floated melodiously back and forth from Qingyun Peak to the entire Crab Island.
Along with the ringing of bells, the Wang family also ushered in another large-scale celebration more than ten years later.
The only difference from the last celebration was that this time the bells rang not six times, but nine.
As for the last time the Zhenyun Bell rang nine times, it had to be traced back one hundred and seventy-eight years ago.
As for the Wang clan members who have experienced this incident, apart from Wang Lixing himself, the only one who has stayed in the forbidden area behind Qingyun Peak for many years is the Xueyun Beast, the clan guardian spirit beast of the Wang clan.
"Five Dynasties Rivers, Mountains and Winds"
On this important day, basically all the clan members were recalled to their ancestral island except those who really couldn't leave.
But Wang Shi'an was not among them. The day before the ceremony, he was taken to Qingyun Peak by Wang Xiuzhu.
At this time, Wang Shian was ordered by his grandfather to practice in seclusion for a day, so he was destined to miss this ceremony.
…
It's a moment.
Outside the Wang family mountain gate.
Two teams of monks uniformly wearing blue robes were standing proudly on both sides of the mountain gate.
Looking at their faces, they are all dignified, elegant and peaceful.
At this time, a figure came from the mountain gate and came towards this place. As soon as it landed on the ground, it said:
"Second brother, how's it going? Have you made all the arrangements?"
Hearing the visitor's words, Wang Xiujie smiled lightly and responded:
"Brother, don't worry, everything is ready."
When Wang Xiulin heard this, he nodded with satisfaction. After a few pleasantries, he immediately rushed back. As the organizer of the ceremony this time, he was responsible for arranging everything.
As the second-ranked foundation-building monk in his generation, Wang Xiujie had the important task of welcoming guests at the mountain gate.
The monks standing proudly on both sides were naturally members of the Ming generation, and Wang Mingzhe was one of the two leaders.
A moment after Wang Xiulin left, Wang Xiujie noticed something, and then raised his head and looked into the distance. After a while, several figures came into view.
"coming!"
As soon as he finished speaking, a burst of laughter followed.
"Hahaha, Bai Qiu Ming, the Bai family of Lobster Island, was invited by the nobles to attend the foundation building ceremony!"
"Hahaha, it turns out to be Fellow Daoist Bai. I, Wang Xiujie, would like to thank fellow Daoist Daoist for coming all the way!"
Upon hearing the visitor's words, Wang Xiujie immediately laughed back and stepped forward to greet him.
The Bai family of Lobster Island is a family affiliated with the Wang family, and its patriarch is Bai Qiuming, a masculine-looking middle-aged man with perfect Qi cultivation.
"It turns out it's Senior Wang! I'd be sorry to trouble you to welcome him in person. It's really embarrassing for this junior!"
As soon as Bai Qiuming landed, he quickly saluted Wang Xiujie, his face full of shame and uneasiness.
"Fellow Daoist Bai, you are out of touch now. Our family does not speak the same language. There are no seniors today. You and I, fellow Taoist, are worthy of each other!"
"this……"
"Why, fellow Taoist Bai, don't you look down on me?" Looking at Bai Qiuming, who was still a little hesitant, Wang Xiujie's expression changed, and he said with a straight face:
"Don't dare, don't dare, then this junior has gone too far..."
"Um?"
"Oh, no, no, no, then I would rather be respectful than obey," Bai Qiuming immediately changed his tune and laughed.
"Hahaha, that's right. Don't be polite later, fellow Taoist Bai, and you must try my Wang family's unique spiritual tea!" Wang Xiujie nodded with satisfaction, then laughed and replied.
"sure!"
The two exchanged some pleasantries, and then Wang Xiujie said to Wang Mingzhe beside him:
"Mingzhe, take Daoist Bai to the clan, don't neglect it!"
"Nephew, I obey!"
